After waking Peter up, Zhao Nan put on a vicious face and said, "I'll ask you a question in a while, you can answer yes and no, nod if you answer yes, shake your head if you don't, don't play tricks, understand?"

Peter's mouth was tightly gagged with a towel, and he could only stare at Zhao Nan with a fierce gaze.

"Be obedient and don't move. Zhao Nan was afraid that Peter would break free of the cloth on his body, so he stepped on him with one kick, and the holy sword-humility in his hand was close to his neck. 、

Move a little, and Zhao Nan will cut it.

"Don't do that, he's my friend anyway. Audrey pushed Zhao Nan away angrily, then came to Peter, and said softly: "Brother Peter, do you remember me? ”

When Peter saw Audrey, he was stunned at first, and then his eyes burst into excitement.

"Do you recognize me?" said Audrey, too, with surprise on her face.

"Woo......" Peter couldn't speak, only nodded sharply and motioned for Audrey to let him go.

"Okay, you wait, Audrey will let you go. Audrey said as she reached out and untied Peter.

Seeing this, Zhao Nan hurriedly pulled her and scolded: "You are really dizzy, let him go like this, what should he do when he resists and alarms the elf soldiers outside?"

"He's my friend and won't hurt us. Audrey dissatisfied.

"Then you can let him go so easily, right?" Zhao Nan glanced at her, then walked up to Peter, and muttered while moving his hands: "In this way, first abolish his limbs, and then let him go." ”

"Woo-woo......" Peter listened, and his face showed horror, and he struggled violently.

"Why don't you keep tying up?" exclaimed Audrey with black lines on her face.

"Otherwise, what can I do? I want him not to move, but also that he can obediently cooperate with me. Zhao Nan said.

"Didn't you say that the High Priest told you to come to him? Wouldn't it be better if you gave him the high priest's letter? Audrey reminded.

"Yes, that letter!" Zhao Nan suddenly remembered and immediately took out the letter from the system backpack.

Audrey immediately snatched the letter, and then put it in front of Peter's eyes, until Peter's eyes showed surprise, Audrey pointed to Zhao Nan and asked, "Do you know who he is?"

"Woo-woo......" Peter nodded again.

Zhao Nan walked over suspiciously, and saw Peter slapping his eyes, as if he wanted to express something. After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Nan took out the towel.

Peter exhaled heavily, and then said, "It's the Phantom Swordsman. If I knew it was you, my subordinates wouldn't have been so embarrassed. ”

"Since you know it's me, then if the high priest has something to ask me to find you, you should also know, right?" Seeing Peter reveal his identity, Zhao Nan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Audrey saw this. He untied the strip of cloth on Peter's body at the first time, and then said slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry." Big Brother Peter. We had to do it as a last resort.

After Peter sat up, he shook his head and said, "It's not your fault, it's just that the High Priest wants the Phantom Swordsman to act secretly, because the stakes are very high, and if you walk in with your identity on, your subordinates will not necessarily tell you about it." ”

"What the hell is going on? The old man is mysterious. Zhao Nan pouted. The old man in his mouth was the high priest of the elves.

Peter didn't speak, but looked at Audrey.

"Ahh

"If you go out now, it's equivalent to telling Quan Shijie. Someone is here. Zhao Nan said angrily.

"What then?" Audrey looked at Peter in a dilemma, and then at Zhao Nan.

"You stay here, if you tell the secret that day, Lao Tzu will kill you. Zhao Nan said seriously.

“......”

Peter didn't know if Zhao Nan was telling the truth or not, but Audrey was his friend, so he had no reason to embarrass her, so he had to say: "In this way, I will write down the things that the high priest explained with a beast skin and a pen, and then give it to the Phantom Swordsman for you to see." ”

I don't know if I can trigger the task in this way, but Zhao Nan saw Peter's resolute attitude, so he had to nod.

Peter sat down in his place, wrote on the animal skin with a pen, and it took about ten minutes for a piece of animal skin to be written, he handed the animal skin to Zhao Nan, and then said: "My lord, this matter is very important, the high priest instructed his subordinates not to leak it easily, and the lord went to the northern battlefield this time, and not many people knew about it, so his subordinates hoped that the lord would not make a noise." ”

"Do you want to teach this?" Zhao Nan muttered, took the animal skin from Peter's hand, he unfolded it and read it slowly and carefully, as he continued to read, Zhao Nan's two eyebrows became more and more wrinkled, after reading it, Zhao Nan looked up at Peter and asked in a deep voice: "What about that thing?"

"Your Excellency, please wait a moment. ”

Peter answered, went to his bed, crouched down, and pulled out a cube-shaped iron box from under the bed, the box was the size of a head, and the whole body was dark, and even in the dim tent there was a black glow.

Peter placed the box on the table, then pulled out a golden key from his bosom. Inserting the lock key into the hole in the box, I heard a click, and the box opened.

Peter took out a palm-sized bottle from it, carefully brought it to Zhao Nan and said, "My lord, please take a look." ”

The moment Zhao Nan took the bottle, the prompt of the system finally appeared.

System: You gain the quest item "Shijie Tree Seed".

System: The main quest - Northern Battlefield, you finally meet the elf spy Peter, and get the shijie tree seed from him, the task is completed, and you get 80,000 experience points, 20 gold coins, and 100 honor points.

System: Trigger the main quest - the second shijie tree, according to what Peter told the high priest, bring the shijie tree seeds to the depths of the earth at coordinates X2938, Y4839, plant them on the Nova vein, wait for the shijie tree to sprout, and complete the task to obtain 6,000,000 experience points, 1500 gold coins, and 15,000 honor points. 100% chance to get a piece of purple equipment and 50% chance to get a piece of gold equipment.

When Zhao Nan saw the prompts of these systems, he contacted what Peter had just relayed. Suddenly realized, glanced at the bottle in his hand, and saw that there was a seed the size of an olive kernel inside, which was shining silver, as if it had a magical vitality.

It turned out that the high priest of the elven clan had been secretly cultivating a new shijie tree. The shijie tree is the center of the veins of the goddess of nature, Nova Sacred Power, and can only grow if it is located in the center of the Whispering Forest, the Nova vein.

About half a year ago, Zhao Nan and Gu Ming were under the leadership of the mountain giant Donnaxiu. I had seen that towering giant tree once, it was like a mountain peak, towering into the clouds, and the emerald holy tree of Canrad was no different from a small grass in front of the shijie tree.

The shijie tree is the core of the elves. It is also the foundation of their prosperity, the elves believe. As long as the shijie tree is still there. Even if the dragon burned down the entire Whispering Forest, the elves still had the power to protect themselves.

However, over the years, as the two Nova Walls have been destroyed one after another, the Nova veins deep underneath have been discovered by the dragon, and the dragon has destroyed the Nova veins underground. Not only did the wall of Nova not regenerate, but even the Shijie tree was affected.

The shijie tree grows by absorbing the holy power of the Nova veins, and if the Nova veins are completely destroyed, the shijie tree will one day wither. For the future of the elves. The high priest of the elven clan decided to cultivate a second shijie tree as a backing.

However, how difficult it is to plant a living shijie tree, not to mention the opposition within the elf clan, even if you want to plant a living shijie tree, it is impossible without the huge power of the natural elements. The Nova vein is the embodiment of the sacred power of the goddess of nature, Nova, which is why there is such a huge holy power to support the growth of the shijie tree.

But now, the Nova vein of the entire elf clan has been assimilated by the current shijie tree, and the Nova vein has become the root of the shijie tree, and it is impossible to plant another shijie tree.

However, the dragon destroyed the Nova veins at the bottom of the two Nova Walls, but it provided an opportunity to cultivate the Shijie tree.

In fact, on this trip to the northern battlefield, the High Priest not only wanted to let the Terran and Elven forces regain the lost territory, but also wanted to re-establish Nova Maino on the lost land. But there is one thing that the high priest did not announce, that is, to plant new shijie tree seeds on the recovering haode nova veins, as long as the seeds germinate, just recovering the haode nova veins will automatically detach from the roots of the shijie tree originally connected to the depths of the ground, and this connection will be broken, and the new shijie trees and these nova veins will become independent individuals and grow naturally.

The high priest is convinced that as long as the new shijie tree grows, it will grow rapidly, and it will become a new barrier to protect the entire elf race, and once the barrier is formed, let alone purebred dragons, even if the six-colored dragon king is there in person, under the suppression of the power of the interface, it is impossible for them to be destroyed.

Such a clever plan, but the high priest knew that it must not be made public, because the whole elf clan has always respected the shijie tree as a god, and the shijie tree is the embodiment of the goddess of nature, and privately cultivating a new shijie tree, in the eyes of the entire elf clan, it is simply a manifestation of disrespect to the gods, and it is a blasphemy against the goddess of nature.

Even some forest arians such as Farkoyu could not be on his side.

However, for the sake of the bigger picture, the high priest had to secretly arrange for someone he could trust to do this, and he was willing to take full responsibility as long as the new shijie tree grew.

However, the matter of cultivating a new shijie tree is so important, who should be chosen to do it? The high priest himself has been thinking about this matter for a long time, after all, this matter is not supported by people in the first place, and it is extremely difficult to choose a person who can be trusted and has strong ability. It wasn't until half a year ago that the High Priest met Zhao Nan, the newly succeeded Phantom Swordsman, and the thoughts in his head were clear.

Zhao Nan is not an elven clansman, but he was recognized by the previous Phantom Swordsman and inherited the Phantom Swordsman. It can be said that he is both an elf and not an elf. Such an identity, but it happens to be the best person for this mission.

So, the High Priest asked his henchman, Peter, the spy he had been planting in the northern battlefield, to keep Peter on the two destroyed Nova Vano, waiting for his further arrangements.

As for the seeds of the shijie tree in Zhao Nan's hand, they were actually produced by the original shijie tree, and since the seeds originated from the shijie tree itself, this also shows that the shijie tree also has the instinct to reproduce, which is in line with the laws of nature, which is also the reason why the high priest insisted on cultivating the second shijie tree.

"I didn't expect that old man to be a man. ”

After Zhao Nan understood the ins and outs of everything, he couldn't help but sigh at the high priest's good intentions, the high priest's move was to save the survival of the elf clan, but it was limited to the old-fashioned rules and regulations of the elf clan, so he had to do this.

"Your Excellency the High Priest is indeed great, in fact, I graduated from the Warrior Academy. I was taken by his old man and stayed by his side to do things, and I really felt very honored to be involved in such a great feat this time. Peter nodded in agreement.

"Since you know the purpose of coming to the northern battlefield this time, then I'll go, you will continue to be your lieutenant general, and I will go and do my business. Zhao Nan said.

"Yes, everything is as the Phantom Swordsman commands. Peter nodded in reply.

Zhao Nan nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Audrey, who was standing aside in a daze, "Let's go back, stay here for one more day first." When your father arrives here tomorrow, I'll set off again. ”

"Where are you going?" asked Audrey, curious.

"Go and do something that can't see the light, if you're interested in knowing, I'll tell you it's fine, if you're not afraid of being killed by me. Zhao Nanyin measured.

Audrey listened. Immediately covered his ears and shook his head violently.

"My lord, I'll cover your leave. Peter proposed to Zhao Nan.

"Hmm. ”

Thereupon. Peter deliberately went outside. Transferred the nearby elf soldiers to patrol other places, and when there was no one nearby, he let Zhao Nan and Audrey leave, but when they were about to part, Peter called out to Audrey.

"What's the matter, Big Brother Peter?"

"Uh, nothing. It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and now this environment can't get together with you, I think it's a pity. Peter said embarrassedly.

"Don't worry, I'll accompany him today. I'll come back to you early tomorrow morning. Audrey smiled sweetly.

"Haode, I'll wait for you. Peter nodded slightly excitedly.

Zhao Nan and Audrey left smoothly, and when they returned to their own camp, they had just entered their tent, and he showed an ambiguous look and said, "It seems that your classmate Peter is very good to you, and his eyes are shining when he looks at you." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Audrey yawned, then stretched. These two nights were not night dives on the road, and she never slept at all, and now that she is back to her own place, she really wants to lie down and sleep.

"Didn't you notice? Just now he looked at you with a blue look in his eyes, and a smile on the corner of his mouth, clearly trying to eat you. Zhao Nan said narrowly.

"Is it so obscene as you say? It's an appreciative look, isn't it?"

This is Zhao Nan's tent, he sat down, his eyes glanced at Audrey, and then touched his chin and muttered, "That place on your body is worth admiring?"

"I really want to kill you. Audrey was so angry that her sword at her waist was half drawn, and the silver light flashed.

"It's just a joke, but you still have a place that stands out for people to admire. Zhao Nan was not afraid of Audrey's threat at all, and still smiled and said.

"Where?" asked Audrey, her face softened.

"Boobs. Zhao Nan was serious.

"I'd better kill you. Audrey swung her sword and slashed, and Zhao Nan's finger pointing at her chest was immediately cut off.

", chick, are you really chopping?" Zhao Nan saw the blood gushing from the severed finger, and couldn't help but scream.

"It's not just your fingers, it's your whole place to be cut off. Audrey's eyes flashed fiercely, and her sword Xiangxia was sharpened, and she actually pointed at the key point between Zhao Nan's crotch.

"Do you really dare to do it...... Zhao Nan shouted in his mouth, twisting his body, narrowly avoiding this vital attack.

"Die!" Audrey replied with her sword raised.

Zhao Nan's heart was furious, and he couldn't care about joking anymore, so he hurriedly met the sword with his back, and when Audrey's sword was not collected, he grabbed her calf and pulled it violently.

"Ah~!"

Audrey let out a scream, her body immediately lost balance, she only felt a whirlwind of the world, and when she came back to her senses, Zhao Nan was already riding on top of her.

"Hmph, chick, I'm back at my brother's home field now. Zhao Nan put out both hands and grabbed under the elf girl.

"Help!" Audrey covered her chest with her hand.

Zhao Nan grabbed her hands and raised them high above her head, and then showed some evil smiles on her face, and said, "Lao Tzu has endured you for a long time, it seems that this time you have to train you well." (To be continued......)
